Rachael Ray, Sunny and Extended Stay America Hotels Team Up To Fight Hunger

Extended Stay America hotels – the largest owner operated hotel chain in the U.S. – donated 100,000 meals to support Rachael Ray’s “9 Million Meals” campaign, benefitting Feeding America and No Kid Hungry. Sunny announced the donation on The Rachael Ray Show today.

I’m so proud of what my friends at Extended Stay America hotels and my girl Rachael Ray are doing to help end hunger in this country,” said Sunny. “As a cook and Food Bank of New York City board member, fighting hunger is a cause close to my heart and I know first hand what a difference 100,000 meals makes.

Extended Stay America hotels’ $10,000 donation to “9 Million Meals” will be divided equally between Feeding America and No Kid Hungry, with every dollar donated helping to provide 10 meals to people struggling with hunger across the country. “One of Extended Stay America hotel’s core values is caring for the communities in which we live and serve. Even a basic necessity like food is something so many of us take for granted; it’s important to remember those in need and do everything we can to help,” said Terry Atkins, senior director of marketing communications for Extended Stay America.
